Wow, knock me over with a feather! Dear Hubby came in bearing candy heart gifts for Dear Daughter and I and then handed me a lovely red bag filled with red tissue. Inside I found this THIS lovely ring, so….what else could it be on Valentine’s Day but 13 things I like about my new ring:

1. I’ve gone completely silly over it, and couldn’t stand not making a record of receiving it.

2. The yellow stone is a citrine surrounded by diamonds. You can find out more about citrines here

3. It was a complete surprise. I love to be surprised!

4. You notice it. It can be seen across the room. Ok, I know that sounds stuck up, but I like large pieces. I don’t have too many real honest-to-goodness items, but the one or two I have are hefty.

Prada....now that's a label. I watched The Devil Wears Prada last night. There are some great clothes and great lines in that movie. I loved it, but need to sit through it again since I was online through most of it.

My hubby is in Japan so I am hoping for a nice surprise when he gets home. Although he hasn't done to shabby so for I got a phone call, which while it doesn't sound like much considering the time difference took a major effort on his part and I have been enjoying reading about his adventures. I love to travel even if it is second hand.

Nice to see romance alive and well. If I were you, I'd wear my ring everywhere . . . and for the next little while (not just today) manage to slip it into each and every conversation I had. Thanks for sharing!

ok, WOW! What an amazing gift. I often get jealous when I see these great gifts. My hubby doesn't believe in having this one day to show your love, yes, I got a very nice card, but it was just like another day. We celebrate our love at different times, I guess. Take a nice trip, etc. He never grew up with family who celebrated and in the past seven years, I have not gotten him to change. But.....thats ok! He loves me and that is what is important.

I, too, was surprised with a ring. Mine is a blue topaz, with two little diamonds on each side. But, yours is larger and quite worthy of the praise you gave it. I am very happy for you! Best of all is being remembered, isn't it? I mean, with something other than a vacuum cleaner of course.
